Merle Haggard

Merle Ronald Haggard (born April 6, 1937) is an American country music song writer, singer, guitarist, fiddler and instrumentalist. Along with Buck Owens, Haggard and his band The Strangers helped create the Bakersfield sound, which is characterized by the unique twang of Fender Telecaster and the unique mix with the traditional country steel guitar sound, new vocal harmony styles in which the words are minimal, and a rough edge not heard on the more polished Nashville Sound recordings of the same era. more »

I sit alone at my table and watch all the others have fun
And I'm tired of sittin' on the sidetrack, watchin' the mainline run
I'm tired of havin' no future, livin' on things that I've done
And I'm tired of sittin' on the sidetrack, watchin' the mainline run

Train, train, don't leave me
Oh, train, train of life

I got no one to call me their darling, to hug me and call me their hon
And I'm tired of sittin' on the sidetrack, watchin' the mainline run
I'm tired of havin' no future, just livin' on things that I've done
And I'm tired of sittin' on the sidetrack, watchin' the mainline run

Train, train, don't leave me
Oh, train, train of life

Train, train, don't leave me
Oh, train, train of life, train of life
